Audience Launches New Flagship Loudspeaker Line

Audience is calling its new ClairAudient 16+16 loudspeaker its best speaker ever. The new version of the 16+16 has been upgraded with the addition of eight 6×9-inch custom passive radiators that are used to create what the company is calling a “full-range,” one-way, bi-pole loudspeaker. The previous 16+16 was flat down to 80Hz and required the augmentation of a subwoofer, while the new 16+16 is spec’d flat from 30Hz to 22kHz.

The upgraded ClairAudient 16+16 loudspeaker is a bi-pole (front and rear radiating), one-way line source design that incorporates the company’s second-generation A3-S2 drivers and 6×9-inch cast aluminum-frame passive radiators. Measuring 15 inches wide by 12 inches deep by six feet tall and incorporating 32 A3-S2 drivers per channel, the ClairAudient 16+16 is available in a choice of exotic wood finishes with a list price of $72,000 per pair.
